Docking into the dashboard not possible
On the subject of screen real estate... I was trying to dock the simulation debugger panel into the dashboard panel but could not. The docking arrows show but no docking is possible. Is there something to set up somewhere to allow this?

Re: Docking into the dashboard not possible
Tried but no cigar... the docking arrows show up and I can move the simulation panel but it will not dock into the dashboard. It docks fine into the main panel but not the dashboard.
BTW it looks to me that you can reposition or undock the dashboard, how do you do it? I tried to move it but it always stays at the lower part of the screen. The dashboard panel does not have a docking button either.
I'm using FC 6.0.7 with the system panel disabled.

Re: Docking into the dashboard not possible
Hi Ras,
Sorry to take a while giving you a proper 'Matrix' response - we're running a skeleton crew at the moment while several staff are away on leave. I've experimented a bit with your findings, and on our systems here running the latest version (V6.0.7), I can confirm the bug that your seeing. It seems that this only happens when the dashboard is set as the default panel - docking works fine for us when the system panel is used as the main panel, which is possibly why you are seeing different results to Medelec.
We're already aware of a few problems with the positioning of windows, so I will add this issue to our bugs list to be addressed when we give the whole docking system an overhaul.
Best regards,
Steve.
